I just love it when people are so blinded by hatred, they completely throw common sense and intelligent thinking right out the window.
:shock: Have you ever READ the Enquirer?

I just love it when women throw other women under the bus, simply for exposing their heros as crass, sexists pigs. Liberal women did the same thing when Clinton's and Edwards' charming antics toward women were revealed.
Hmm, I think I just said the same thing to you... but I was a bit more polite with my choice of words. :lol:
You know that multi-tasking really means you do no one thing well but a lot of things crappy...right?
If this woman's story is true as you seem to believe, then that would make Gore more than "a crass sexist pig" no? But that is how you chose to word it. :screwy
Me, as a woman, I could not possibly image staying and completing my job after being violated in such a way. Especially when it was so easy to walk out the door.
Now whether there was some funny business going on between them, that is a different story... and it might have happened. But her story of what happened does not make on iota of common sense. It doesn't take Sherlock to figure out her story reeks.
I don't believe anything, but I'm not willing to accuse this woman of being a money hungry liar as you two have. I simply enjoy pointing out hypocrisy when I see it.
And what would have happened if she had left and gone to the front desk complaining ??? I'll tell you... they would tell her to get out of the hotel and never come back, then call Gore's room and apologize for any inconvenience the woman caused him.
Who do you think they would believe? The woman or the ex-vice president spending thousands of dollars there???
What hypocrisy?

Having spent many years in the convention hotel business, I can tell you with authority that any such complaint would be immediately investigated by hotel security, with followups by the local police. Been there, seen that (too many times).
It's obvious that Gore, like many famous people, feel they are of the privileged class and can take whatever they feel like at the time, with no repercussions.
ANY SEXUAL remarks, misconduct or advances will discontinue the appointment immediately and the full price for the service will still be owed.

So is anyone wondering how he procured her services. Was she an employee of the hotel or was she an independent therapist who makes hotel visits. If she was the latter then I would think she would know how to handle this kind of situation as I would think that Gore was not the first person to pursue a "happy ending".
I did a quick search in my home city and could not find any massage locations on Yelp that offered a visit outside of their facility.
One of them had this policy on their web site.
I am not saying this did not happen it just seems weird that a professional massage therapist would not be able to handle this situation.
Maybe Al turned on that famous Gore charm.
Speaking of hypocracy, you have no trouble accusing others of it, yet you make this sweeping statement about Gore. How do you know this as fact? Do you know him personally? Where you the fly in his hotel room wall? Has he made advances towards you or anyone else that you know who confided to you?
Me, I have no clue. He could be a sleazy slimeball or not. I don't know enough to make that judgement.
I hope you're right, but I can't help but think that someone like Gore would get a pass.
Since you believe that a powerful man can demand anything he wants of a woman with no consequences, including sexual favors, any further discussion is a waste of time.
I have first-hand knowledge about the behind-closed-hotel-doors illegal/criminal activities of several well-known and influential people on the world stage. None of them were given a pass; none of their accusers were ignored. Oh sure, the culprits had money and lawyers to keep such incidents out of the press, but they still happened with sickening frequency.
Wow... strawman much? Where did I say that? Can you point me directly to a quote of myself?

Even when the accused is the former vice prez?I'm saying his power could have made people turn a blind eye. We've seen that too many times as well.
I'm not saying I believe her story; I'm saying his power could have had influence were it true.

This--without a shadow of a doubt--proves that global warming is nothing but a fabricated myth!!!
